@sdfoster74

Did you tried to disable Origin in Game? (Origin > menu top left > application settings > Origin in Game > Origin in Game > off (Grey)

If that don't helps, preform a clean boot and test the Game in clean boot mode.

If that also don't helps, shut the computer down > Disconnect the second monitor > Start the PC > Test.

      There are three suggestions. 😉

      So you tried all three? No difference in clean boot mode?

      There are Windows update errors. Please make sure that updates that failed got installed afterwards.

        Oh yes! I miscounted sorry.

        Yup, tried all three and as many combinations of all three that I could.

        Where would I find out which updates need to be done?

        Thanks for all your help
